This image was taken whilst Jean-Francois was swimming at North Sydney Pool using an underwater camera to get shots for a photographic immersive. He was producing this immersive for the exhibition on modernism in Australia Modern Times: the untold story of modernism in Australia. The immersive featured significant swimming pools that were important features of modernism in Australia. These pools included the Rudder and Grout designed North Sydney Pool and Enfield Pool, the Centenary Pool in Brisbane that looks like something from the ‘Jetsons’ and the pool that was home to the swimming for the 1956 Melbourne Olympics.
